Offset says that he “made a lot of mistakes” in his marriage to Cardi B.
In an appearance on the Baby, This is Keke Palmer podcast, Set and the titular host had a candid discussion about the downsides of him being in a relationship with a fellow "superstar."
“I was definitely not perfect,” he said around the 33-minute mark. “I made a lot of mistakes. I did a lot of wrong, and it’s always on the front screen, so it was hard to move on from it.”
When asked by Palmer what he would have done differently in the relationship, Offset mentioned one thing in particular.
“I should have respected her way more,” he said of Cardi. “I made bad decisions as a man, stepping out, and I gotta take that on the chin.”
“I was being selfish, and I can say that as a man,” he added. “I wish there wasn’t so much interest in our stuff going on. I've done got out of pocket a couple of times because it feels like you’re getting bullied.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Offset addressed the rumor that he slept with Saweetie while she was dating Quavo.
“No, it was rumored, man,” he said. “I feel like it was something deeper than that for the split of me and bro.”
“I think people were trying to tear down my situation and their situation,” Offset speculated. “We’re men, we don’t play those games.”
Offset’s comments about his marriage to Cardi come days after she spoke about the mental impact of their relationship’s downfall on the On Purpose podcast.
“Last year, I was planning to have an album. I was planning to put out an album, but I couldn't focus," she said. "I fell in the deepest depression that I had ever had. And with that depression, I couldn't function."
"And when I talk about function, it's not even like, oh, just working. I couldn't eat. I couldn't sleep. I couldn't do nothing. So that just halted everything that I had," she added.
"I felt the love dying from my end, from his end," Cardi admitted. "I was very lonely because I [chose] to be lonely. I was saying, like, ‘You know what? I can't go through this anymore. I have to put a stop to it.’”
"But when I said I was going to put a stop to it...because you can say you're going to put a stop to it, and you could; you could go a month without being around somebody,” she concluded. “But it's not when you say so. It's when your heart [says] so..."
